sued the auction house to stop the scheduled sale of thousands of his personal possessions calling their actions "malicious, fraudulent, extreme, outrageous and without any legal justification whatsoever." This was news to the auction house because they say Mike knew about the auction from the start calling the suit a, "total surprise to us, because Jackson had been apprised of everything since the day we started. His manager ... has approved everything."
Auction items include Michael's American Music Award for "Thriller," a velvet cape given to him by his children for Father's Day in 1998, a pair of rhinestone-trimmed socks from 1981, a basketball signed by Michael Jordan, platinum and gold records, a customized Harley Davidson and a Rolls Royce limousine among other things.
